Jesus is identified as the “Word” in the opening verses of the Gospel of John. The Christian Bible says that He is the perfect expression of God’s will and gives us what we need to connect to the Father in heaven.
When King Solomon was asked by God what he desired, he requested wisdom to rule Israel (I Kings 3:5-14). My one wish (my sincere desire) is to know and love His Word more than anything else.
"I have asked the LORD for one thing; one thing only do I want: to live in the LORD's house all my life, to marvel there at his goodness, and to ask for his guidance." Psalm 27:4
God has been excruciatingly careful in what He has said to us. His Word is flawless.
“See how I love your instructions, LORD. Your love never changes, so save me! The heart of your law is truth, and all your righteous judgments are eternal. Powerful people attack me unjustly, but I respect your law. How happy I am because of your promises--- as happy as someone who finds rich treasure. I hate and detest all lies, but I love your law. Seven times each day I thank you for your righteous judgments. Those who love your law have perfect security, and there is nothing that can make them fall. I wait for you to save me, LORD, and I do what you command. I obey your teachings; I love them with all my heart. I obey your commands and your instructions; you see everything I do. Let my cry for help reach you, LORD! Give me understanding, as you have promised. Listen to my prayer, and save me according to your promise! I will always praise you, because you teach me your laws. I will sing about your law, because your commands are just. Always be ready to help me, because I follow your commands. How I long for your saving help, O LORD! I find happiness in your law. Give me life, so that I may praise you; may your instructions help me. I wander about like a lost sheep; so come and look for me, your servant, because I have not neglected your laws.” Psalm 119:159-176
Do you love His Word?
